Openapi-generator: [REQ] Hanling example in ApiModelProperty

[hellboy81]

example is placed always as plain string into ApiModelProperty

I'm always frustrated when I should always write own enum class from examples instead of use generated.

/util/testExecutionStatus:
    get:
      description: Get Execution Statuses, Priorities, Components, Labels
      summary: Get Execution Statuses, Priorities, Components, Labels
      tags:
      - UtilResource
      operationId: UtilTestExecutionStatusGet
      deprecated: false
      produces:
      - application/json
      parameters:
      - name: Content-Type
        in: header
        required: true
        type: string

          examples:

Describe the solution you'd like

Is there possible to add feature to add code generation instead placing plain string into @ApiModelProperty(example = "" ?

Describe alternatives you've considered

Is there another (online) tools to generate code from OpenAPI's example ?

Additional context

[jmini]

@ApiModelProperty is from the swagger-annotations project.

I am not sure to understand what you expect…

[jimschubert]

The examples array is not the appropriate place to define enums in your OpenAPI document. You could keep the example code, but you'd still need the enum definition at the model/schema level in order for these to be generated.
